Indian Farming October 1945

1945

The caterpillars rather characteristically rest on the plant with an upwardly projecting loop of the body and if disturbed the head end is curved inwards and the eve-spots on the body become brighter in colour and very conspicuous. [...] The season of the year and the growth period of the plant seem to make a difference in the production of germicidal substances. [...] The grain of the local varieties in the Deccan is smaller than that of Gujarat and Khandesh varieties but is bigger than that of the Karnatak grain. [...] In all the cases the fanner used his own seed of the local variety and all the agrcultural operations were done by him under the supervision of the staff of the Cereal Breeing Station Niphad. [...] This is especially necessary in the case of fresh-water fisheries where the danger of fish depletion is far more acute than in the sea because of the restriction of the size of the area affected.
